There are two aspects in creating a site. First there is the authoring of the site. This is the programming that allows the site to be viewed in a browser and interact with the viewer. The second is finding a host service to host the site so anyone on the WEB can visit.
What the site will be used for is very key in answering your question. If you just want a simple site where you can just show info, that's fairly easy to do and there are sites where you can use their templates and do it for free.
However, if you want a heavily interactive site like an e-commerce site, this is much more complex and generally require being able to write program code in PHP, Java, ASP or other language.

There are several languages used in authoring a website. You start with HTML for display of the site. You can then add ASP, Java, PHP and others for making the site more interactive.
As a software engineer you should already be familiar with the terms front and back ends. This is the client/server concept. In terms of WEB pages, the front end is the pages loaded by the user's browser. The back end is the WEB server they are loaded on and the database they interact with.
Hosting means using a WEB server. This could mean a box in your company's server farm running IIS or Apache or it could be a box located with a WEB host service (the recommended way for small to medium size companies).

So you are a software engineer and you've never heard of HTML?
